I can't imagine!   I really worry about the senior citizens, etc.  Seems every few months we read or hear of some of them dying with no air conditioning or heat!

I don't do crummy work, but I am quite disgusted with what I see in this industry.

I don't know why we put up with it.  They lower our pay, send our jobs overseas, expect us to be on call for no pay at all.  They dance around the IRS definitions of employee, SE and IC.  I've been threatened before, verbally or email abused by supervisors, and even had to resort to legal tactics to get my rightfully deserved pay.


All they care about is production.  I've mentioned to my supervisors a few times when I found errors in medical records or extra spaces showing up at the end of paragraphs in people's work.  I wasn't tattling or trying to get anyone fired, but I felt the errors should have been fixed.  Nothing was done.  The people churning out those reports make more money than I do because I take the time to look things up and properly format everything.  It doesn' t get me anywhere.


I am most definitely NOT sloppy.  I am disillusioned because we are treated as nothing more than sweatshop TYPISTS.


Actually, it was the crummy raises that made me have to leave my job.
Daycare rates doubled per kid in one year, so I couldn't afford to work any more with my oh-so-generous $.25 per hour raise.  If you want to get technical, I'm making the same exact money per hour now as I was 10 years ago.  So please don't tell me to be grateful for having a job because with 20 years of work experience and a college degree, I definitely should be making way more than I am.  Daycare, utilities, gasoline, clothing, groceries, everything has gone up except wages around here.
crummy platform gave it away. I know where YOU work
